Hello: Since you mentioned you are using Jaws 13, have you tried the OCR keys yet? Maybe they would help here.. jaws 13/OCR Keys To use Convenient OCR, the following layered keystrokes have been added:
.INSERT+SPACEBAR, O, W. Recognizes the current application window that has focus. .INSERT+SPACEBAR, O, S. Recognizes the entire screen. .INSERT+SPACEBAR, O, C. Recognizes the currently selected control, such as a graphical button. .INSERT+SPACEBAR, O, Q. Cancels recognition while it is in progress. .INSERT+SPACEBAR, O, H. Speaks a brief help message describing the commands in the OCR layer. **if that don't get you where you need to be on that button to save/submit..try this: press the Alt-Control-Jaws Key-W This vertlizes the screen so you can move cursor to that button and enter on it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jerry Martin" <jandymar...@clear.net> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Monday, October 15, 2012 9:32 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Buttons on a Website Angela: Is it as user friendly as JAWS is, as that is the only screen reader I am familiar with.
